“…having remembered Elena Klionsky’s mostly personal attributes of sensitivity, delicacy and a Romantic aura, I was not prepared for the playing of a tigress that emerged in this CD’s works!…From relentless ostinato patterns and clangorous clusters to trills and soft coloristic effects, and everything in between, Ms. Klionsky shows that she is not to be limited to any one niche…”
Rorianne Schrade
New York Concert Review

“…Elena Klionsky is clearly committed to this stylistically diverse repertoire, and has the dexterity, inner fires, and sensitivity to win audiences to it…challenging yet at times exquisitely beautiful work with an unusual cohesiveness, Ms. Klionsky delivers it with spellbinding convinction…her outstanding turn on this disc should catch her up for time lost while she endured a hand injury that called for multiple surgeries…TRAME IV alone is worth the price of this disc…”
Bert Bailey
MusicWeb International

“…She approaches passages of relentless chordal percussion with utmost confidence and plays passages of sparsely scored filigree with utmost delicacy… Matalon requires almost constant trills, tremolos, repeated notes, and other taxing effects (Klionsky’s endurance is all the more impressive inasmuch as she has endured numerous non-piano-related hand and arm injuries that have required multiple surgeries and years of rehabilitative therapy)… Her endurance is extraordinary…”
Myron Silbertein
Fanfare Magazine (March/April 2023)

“…Ms. Klionsky holding forth heroically and magically… performances are top notch… original yet admirably Modernist thrust that triumphs thanks to the excellent performances by Elena Klionsky and company. Bravo!”

Gapplegate Classical-Modern Music Review

“…I was amazed how good you are and how good this music is – fresh and full of colors, technical difficulties, ideas, freshness, pianism and characters… You are a great pianist!…”
Maestro Neeme Jarvi

“…dazzling performance… tremendous drive…Klionsky’s technical skill and interpretive capacities match her dauntless spirit…”
